Important Notices

For your safety, and to ensure proper operating of your 3Disc™ IOS system, please take the time to read these important notices:

Make sure you use the 5.0V 4A power adapter provided. Failure to do so may result in damage to the scanning device.

Using a USB cable other than the one provided may result in system malfunction or reduced performance.

Make sure to use a USB port that is compatible with USB 3.0 (SuperSpeed), usually indicated by the symbol below: not doing so may result in system malfunction or reduced performance.

When using a desktop computer, it is strongly recommended to plug the USB cable to a USB port located at the back of the computer; not doing so may result in system malfunction or reduced performance.



DO NOT plug the USB cable into an intermediate hub.

If using a laptop computer, make sure the power supply is connected to a power outlet and not running on battery power. Failure to do so will mean that the scanner will not have sufficient power to produce images.



On laptop computers, battery settings in Windows should be configured to high performance mode only, with no battery saving option (Settings/System/Battery).

WARNING: Unsuitable installation sites

  • Locations with excessive humidity or dust
